Now Hiring: Irving Mill, Momofuku Ko, Jean-Georges

October 18, 2007

What is an artisan bartender? “Although you’re a “cocktailian” type, you don’t think of yourself as a “bar chef” because that would be exhausting. You’re a humbler type who prefers to be thought of as a bartender. You are not a drink-snob who whines or makes fun about what people might order.” Oh.

David Chang is hiring cooks at all levels for the soon-to-be relocated Momofuku Noodle Bar. Try to keep this straight, now: Where the noodles were, there will be Momofuku Ko, and for the newest endeavor, Chang needs some cooks as well. Ko will have 14 seats and should open in early winter.
